“‘We are charting previously unexplored waters and arriving at new places.’”
If there is no book or map, how do we get there?
Uncharted Waters is an inaugural exhibition that showcases the Mother Tongue® journey.
In this inaugural exhibition, a newly-commissioned short dance film reveals the ‘Spiral’ used in Act 3 in Mother Tongue® performance. In addition, an interactive space will show you how ancient dances and rhythms, mathematics and biomimicry within the choreography are combined with the sacred geometries that produce the ‘DNA’ of the work. Development of kinetic technology for the set design and public art installation is ongoing for a later stage.
Inaugural exhibition
